A beautiful picture book about Ann Cole Lowe, a little-known African-American fashion designer who battled personal and social adversity in order to pursue her passion of making beautiful gowns and went on to become one of society's top designers.

As soon as Ann Cole Lowe could walk, her momma and grandma taught her to sew. She worked near her momma in their Alabama family shop in the early 1900s, making glorious dresses for women who went to fancy parties. When Ann was 16, her momma died, and Ann continued sewing dresses. It wasn't easy, especially when she went to design school and had to learn alone, segregated from the rest of the class. But the work she did set her spirit soaring, as evidenced in the clothes she made, including Jackie Kennedy's wedding dress and Olivia de Havilland's dress at the Oscars when she won for Best Actress in 
To Each His Own. Rarely credited, Ann Cole Lowe became "society's best kept secret." This beautiful picture book shines the spotlight on a little-known visionary who persevered in times of hardship, always doing what she was passionate about: making elegant gowns for the women who loved to wear them.

Beware of the seller
Size: 10, Color: Blue Format
I was very surprised in these. I only wear Levi’s but I tried these due to price and style. Very nice fit, comfortable, don’t bag/sag in the butt. Length was perfect. I liked the color but prefer a darker rinse much better price than Levi’s and equal in quality. I will reorder these Today’s shipment was a reorder of these very nice jeans that we’ll wear. However, these were sent and were used! Used!!!! I ordered new I do notpay full price for used clothing. In fact I do not buy or wear used clothing the tags were off and in a pocket they were not folded flat and nice they were framed into a half sealed bag and the legs were waded up and hem turned up

Trim & slimming
Size: 16 Short, Color: Deepest Dark
I was so pleased to receive these today. Their title says it all. So well made: the fabric is soft yet the weave is tight, the leg is just the right width at the bottom; and it's comfortably stretchy at the waist and leg. Deepest Dark seems like a true jeans color, blue yet somewhat navy. It's not bright so doesn't call attention to itself. Almost forgot -- the front pockets are just deep enough for a phone.

Slimming Look, Not Too Much Stretch
Size: 8, Color: Blue Format
Some stretch but not too much! I really like these. They hug and pull me in well. I’m slim through the hips with a bit of belly. I’m 5’5” 147.8 and these did not give me a muffin top even though I have a flabby belly. The color is exactly as described. They did not shrink after washing and the quality is what I expect as they are Lee jeans. They are very durable.

Button sucks!
Size: 14, Color: Deepest Dark
These are cute jeans and are great quality, especially for the price. I would've kept them, but had to return them because THE BUTTON IS AWFUL. It is SO hard to get through the hole. It's rounded on the edge so there's nothing to grab onto so it actually hurt my fingers to try to close them. I think the lack of stretch in the top was 25% the culprit, too. They were 100% my size and fit perfectly, so it's not a sizing issue. If I could make a recommendation to Lee it would be to rethink that horrible design and use just the regular button that all jeans come with.

Thighs waaay to big, otherwise literally perfect.
Size: 18, Color: Blue Format
One issue- the thighs were huge. Otherwise these jeans are perfect. They fit great everywhere else, quality material and good thickness. Waist is very comfortable. I wanted so badly to keep these but I knew I'd never wear them. I tried to get past the thigh issue, but they just looked silly.
